2.7" LCD Display & Widescreen HR Recording
Widescreen HR recording captures your video in full 16:9. Using the 2.7" LCD monitor you can compose in the same widescreen format, leaving no doubt in your mind that what you saw on the screen is what was recorded.
Image Stabilizer
The Image Stabilizer on the ZR-930 gives you a steady shot even when you're panning and zooming or shooting telephoto.

Built-in Lens Cover
Never lose your lens cap again with Canon's built-in manual lens cover.
Multi-Angle Wireless Remote
The included Multi-Angle wireless remote allows you to control the camcorder from a distance, instead of just right next to the camera. Now when you want to be in the shot too you can!
